Hi folks, MutableStateFlow interface documentation says:

A mutable [StateFlow] that provides a setter for [value] and a method to [close] the flow.

However, I can’t see any close method! I am missing something ?

No, I don't think you are -- you should file an issue

It doesn't need a close. It is still a Flow which don't need a close either. The lifecycle of the Flow (and MutableStateFlow) is determined by the collector (the CoroutineScope in which collect is called)

[octylFractal]

well, then the documentation should be updated to reflect that fact -- either way an issue needs to be filed

[streetsofboston]

Ah yup, the doc needs to change.

Thanks for your responses. I filed an issue for it: https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.coroutines/issues/2007

Thanks! That’s a leftover from the draft PR.
